Founding of The Great Lakes Film Association

Being an independent film producer, director, and writer, I noticed how much of a demand there is for film festivals throughout the world. With the help of others we have decided that Erie, Pa is a wonderful location for a film festival. The scenic area along with it's historic background made Erie a perfect choice. In this day and age many of the top industry professionals come to Pennsylvania to create their films. 

The Great Lakes Independent Film Festival was founded on the idea to showcase the creations of independent filmmakers and to enhance the culture and prosperity of the Great Lakes Region.
